Motivational interviewing (MI) for the treatment of alcohol and drug problems is typically conducted over 1 to 3 sessions. The current work evaluates an intensive 9-session version of MI (Intensive MI) compared to a standard single MI session (Standard MI) using 163 methamphetamine (MA) dependent individuals. The primary purpose of this paper is to report the unexpected finding that women with co-occurring alcohol problems in the Intensive MI condition reduced the severity of their alcohol problems significantly more than women in the Standard MI condition at the 6-month follow-up. Stronger perceived alliance with the therapist was inversely associated with alcohol problem severity scores. Findings indicate that Intensive MI is a beneficial treatment for alcohol problems among women with MA dependence.
动机访谈(MI)通常用于治疗酒精和药物问题,一次治疗通常需要 1 到 3 个疗程。目前的研究评估了一种强化的 9 个疗程的 MI(强化 MI)与标准的单次 MI 疗程(标准 MI),共纳入 163 名甲基苯丙胺(MA)依赖个体。本文的主要目的是报告一个意外的发现,即强化 MI 组中同时存在酒精问题的女性在 6 个月随访时,其酒精问题严重程度的降低幅度显著大于标准 MI 组。与治疗师的更强的感知联盟与酒精问题严重程度评分呈负相关。这些发现表明,强化 MI 对 MA 依赖女性的酒精问题是一种有益的治疗方法。
